Truth-Maker Semantics for Intuitionistic Logic

Kit Fine

Journal of Philosophical Logic > 2014 > 43 > 2-3 > 549-577

I propose a new semantics for intuitionistic logic, which is a cross between the construction-oriented semantics of Brouwer-Heyting-Kolmogorov and the condition-oriented semantics of Kripke. The new semantics shows how there might be a common semantical underpinning for intuitionistic and classical logic and how intuitionistic logic might thereby be tied to a realist conception of the relationship...

ENLIGHTENMENT, INFORMATION, AND THE COPERNICAN DELAY: A VENTURE INTO THE HISTORY OF KNOWLEDGE

CLIFFORD SISKIN

History and Theory > 59 > 4 > 168 - 183

This essay pursues the history of knowledge in the form of what Francis Bacon called a “literary history”—a “story of learning” that tracks “the antiquities and originals of knowledges.” It focuses on the changing interrelations of information and knowledge from the seventeenth century to the present day in order to identify a fundamental continuity in a knowledge project that links the Enlightenment...

WEIGHING CONTEXT AND PRACTICES: THEODOR MOMMSEN AND THE MANY DIMENSIONS OF NINETEENTH‐CENTURY HUMANISTIC KNOWLEDGE

SUZANNE MARCHAND

History and Theory > 59 > 4 > 144 - 167

This essay argues that the history of knowledge, especially when applied to humanistic knowledge making, ought not to study practices of knowing to the exclusion of the peculiarities of individuals and the specifics of the wider contexts in which they operate. It uses the life and work of the Roman historian Theodor Mommsen as a case study, sketching first his qualities as a writer and political actor...

THE IDEALIST VIEW OF DIVINE ACTION IN NATURE

Edward Epsen

Zygon® > 55 > 4 > 924 - 947

Theologies of divine action in nature have sought to maximize traction with the sciences to secure their credibility. While varying in significant ways, all extant proposals share a commitment to physical realism, the claim that (at least some) physical entities and facts are both mind‐independent and ontologically basic within creation. However, I will argue that this metaphysical commitment undermines...

Eva Blinková Pelánová

Svět literatury – Časopis pro novodobé literatury (World of Literature... > 2020 > 62 > 108-123

The present paper deals with the inner dynamism within the order of the fictional world, focusing on the tranformation of realistic writing (Flaubert, Tolstoy, Fontane) towards modernism. The displayed dynamism is exemplified on Thomas Mann’s The Magic Mountain taking into account the issue of autobiography and author’s essays (the Bildungsroman genre and the European realistic tradition).

Effi Briest and the work on genre

Fredrik Wilhelm Renard

Orbis Litterarum > 75 > 4 > 173 - 183

Ever since Erich Auerbach’s harsh verdict in Mimesis, the German realist novel has been seen as a peripheral phenomenon in the history of nineteenth‐century literature. Criticized for being too idealizing, insular, or simply irrelevant, it has gone down in literary history as a less modern form of realism, not being able to join the realist traditions of French, British, and Russian literature as...

Między podmiotem absolutnym a bytową nieokreślonością. O antyhumanistycznych źródłach współczesnej kultury

Sylwester Warzyński

Studia Philosophiae Christianae > 2020 > 56 > 1 > 103-134

Artykuł jest próbą ukazania źródeł współczesnej kultury. Autor stawia w nim tezę, że u jej podstaw znajduje się dziś myślenie w gruncie rzeczy antyhumanistyczne – myślenie spod znaku „śmierci człowieka”, jego bytowej nieokreśloności, ale również spod znaku nowożytnego cogito, podmiotu zabsolutyzowanego, który staje się szczególnego rodzaju fundamentem, ostatecznym podłożem rzeczywistości. W pierwszej...

This article examines an alternative view through an exploration of moral theories of secession from a realist perspective. Realism has recently seen a revival as a form of normative political philosophy and focuses on...

Value and Obligation Once More

Ana Marta González

Metaphilosophy > 51 > 1 > 71 - 86

In Understanding Moral Obligation (2012), Robert Stern sets out to provide a fresh interpretation of the role of autonomy in Kant's moral philosophy and attempts to rectify J. B. Schneewind's standard account in The Invention of Autonomy (1998). While Stern agrees that Kant's resort to autonomy is at the basis of a constructivist account of moral obligation, he claims that autonomy plays no role in...
